/**
* This utility class contains one static method that converts a
* string encoded in the x-www-form-urlencoded format to the original
* text. The x-www-form-urlencoded format
* replaces certain disallowed characters with
* encoded equivalents. All upper case and lower case letters in the
* US alphabet remain as is, the space character (' ') is replaced with
* '+' sign, and all other characters are converted to a "%XX" format
* where XX is the hexadecimal representation of that character. Note
* that since unicode characters are 16 bits, and this method encodes only
* 8 bits of information, the lower 8 bits of the character are used.
* <p>
* This method is very useful for decoding strings sent to CGI scripts
*
* Written using on-line Java Platform 1.2 API Specification.
* Status: Believed complete and correct.
